In P5M, we will be looking at lots of new things across our curricululm. and we have made a great start this term by looking at some of them.

We have started a new topic all about Australia. We are looking forward to learning about the people, the food and about Australian cities such as Melbourne and Sydney. We will also be focusing on climate and conservation as part of this topic. In Art, we have been learning about an Australian artist named Ken Done. Ken Done creates colourful artworks of famous Australian landmarks. We created our own art in the style of Ken Done. We used crayon to draw the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Sydney Opera House. Then we used watercolour paint to colour the background.

In Maths we will be looking at Measure this term and making links to real life examples – such as estimating and then measuring everyday objects. We have begun estimating lengths and measuring lengths in cm using a ruler.

We are looking forward to taking part in cross-country in our PE this term also.
